Trivia
Could we get there?
- Verdict. Impossible with our current technology — and the next millennium of it.
Getting there
- Aboard Voyager 1. ≈ 28.2 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
- Fastest probe ever. ≈ 2.5 million years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
- At 10% light speed. ≈ 16.1 thousand years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
- Distance. 1607 light-years from Earth.
Look-back time
- Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 419.
Saying hello
- Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 3213 years round-trip.
How we found it
- Named. Notable enough to have earned a proper name, not just a catalogue number.
